Time to Talk

How Men Feel About Love, Belonging and Connection

De: Alex Holmes, Charlotte Fox Weber - foreword

Narrado por: Alex Holmes

Foreword by Charlotte Fox Weber, psychotherapist, writer and co-founder of Examined Life.

We live in a super-connected world, yet men specifically, struggle to connect and share. This is changing...but not quickly enough. Award-winning podcaster Alex Holmes sets out to accelerate this shift, debunking lingering myths around masculinity, love and connection by exploring what causes this sense of loneliness.

Starting with 'Real Man Myths' and features designed to encourage us to open up and share, Alex motivates us to move from:

• ignoring to acknowledging
• being closed to opening up
• can't to can
• avoiding to embracing
• expecting to accepting

Sharing his experiences on his podcast and as a young British Black man, Time to Talk is a love letter to all the men who have lost their way and to the women that love them.

Relief

Having read this book, I’ve been left with a sense of ease, relief, and peace. My lack of stereotypical masculine traits has left me feeling alienated all my life. My fear of failure has driven me to make poor and desperate decisions in hopes of great success. Never will I personally be able to “Talk”, but this book has helped me change my self-deprecating and self-loathing attitude. I do still hate myself deeply, and that will take a long time to change. But I feel ready love myself a little to allow myself to lead a happy life.
